It's in the sponsor's contract, zero chainring tattoo tolerance. You
know, corporate image and all that. I know because I read about it here.

Chainring tattoos are what's really making the sponsors leave the sport.

I wonder if anyone has actually done that. Has anyone gotten the grime
changed into permanent ink? Gotta be someone out there at a local race
at least. I haven't seen it yet.

Thanks for the stuff.

The bloody pubs are bloody dull
The bloody clubs are bloody full
Of bloody girls and bloody guys
With bloody murder in their eyes

That's from http://aistigave.hit.bg/Logistics/
which I think Jobst has posted before. I've certainly
spammed my friends with it before.

That and stages that end in field sprints, which are gay.

Bicycle racing needs to get back to its two founding principles:
cleanliness and manliness.

p.s. I don't want to start a new thread for this, but if Pereiro had won
the TdF last year, would that count as a virtual win for Landis? I'm
trying to sort out a fantasy virtual cycling pool I'm running and am a
little confused by all the D.Q.'s last year.

I clean my bike at least once a week. I don't shave (or wax) my nutsack.

Have you considered buying one of these:

I'm sure LIVEDRUNK(tm) could provide the funding
if the computer could spare a few petaflops to
optimize cocktail mixing algorithms.

I always wondered when IBM would come out with a computer that would
finally make OS/2 the Windows-killer it was meant to be.
